New success story: warfarin self-testing

Struggling with busy and time-consuming anticoagulation clinics, Pendleside Medical Practice implemented warfarin self-testing with the engage app. They wanted to reduce the time commitment for nurses and patients alike and found some surprising benefits.

The awards recognise and celebrate outstanding practice in the management, education and provision of anticoagulation services delivered across the UK.

Teams and individuals across secondary, primary and community services have been invited to demonstrate innovation and excellence in delivering anticoagulation services, resources or individual leadership. Winners of each category will receive a £1,000 bursary. Awards will be presented at The Houses of Parliament on Wednesday 11 October 2017 by Andrew Gwynne MP and members of the Judging Panel.
